Thread: no answer to Solaris 2.6 failure to build 6.3.2?
I still cannot get postgres 6.3.2 libpq to build under Solaris 2.6 ... this means I can't test any of my apps using postgres on my deployment platform. can anyone help? gcc version 2.7.2.3 looks like too many warnings (on make in libpq dir) -- I'm not expert at Posix/bsd porting, which is sorta what this looks like... gcc -I../../include -I../../backend -I/opt/tcl/include -I/usr/include// -I/opt/tcl/include// -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes-DFRONTEND -fPIC -c fe-connect.c fe-connect.c: In function `PQconnectdb': fe-connect.c:204: warning: implicit declaration of function `strdup' fe-connect.c:204: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast fe-connect.c:206: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast fe-connect.c:208: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast fe-connect.c:210: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast fe-connect.c:212: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast fe-connect.c:214: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast fe-connect.c:216: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast fe-connect.c: In function `PQsetdbLogin': fe-connect.c:339: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast fe-connect.c:342: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast fe-connect.c:348: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast fe-connect.c:351: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast fe-connect.c:357: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast fe-connect.c:360: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast fe-connect.c:366: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast fe-connect.c:369: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast fe-connect.c:374: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast fe-connect.c:379: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast fe-connect.c:399: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast fe-connect.c:403: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast fe-connect.c:406: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast fe-connect.c:412: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast fe-connect.c:414: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast fe-connect.c: In function `connectDB': fe-connect.c:561: warning: passing arg 4 of `setsockopt' from incompatible pointer type fe-connect.c:579: warning: implicit declaration of function `fdopen' fe-connect.c:579: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast fe-connect.c:580: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast fe-connect.c: In function `PQsetenv': fe-connect.c:694: warning: implicit declaration of function `strcasecmp' fe-connect.c: In function `closePGconn': fe-connect.c:743: storage size of `ignore_action' isn't known fe-connect.c:749: storage size of `oldaction' isn't known fe-connect.c:756: warning: implicit declaration of function `sigemptyset' fe-connect.c:758: warning: implicit declaration of function `sigaction' fe-connect.c:749: warning: unused variable `oldaction' fe-connect.c:743: warning: unused variable `ignore_action' fe-connect.c: In function `conninfo_parse': fe-connect.c:866: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast fe-connect.c:1012: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast fe-connect.c:1035: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast fe-connect.c:1047: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast fe-connect.c:1060: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast fe-connect.c:1073: warning: assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast make: *** [fe-connect.o] Error 1 de ............................................................................. :De Clarke, Software Engineer UCO/Lick Observatory, UCSC: :Mail: de@ucolick.org | "There is no problem in computer science that cannot: :Web: www.ucolick.org | be solved by another level of indirection" --J.O. :

[ snip a whole lot of similar errors, all apparently arising from the
lack of prototypes for strdup() and other functions... ]
gcc is unhappy because it hasn't seen any declaration for strdup, and
later fdopen, strcasecmp, etc. All the other complaints follow from
that.
Either Solaris 2.6 has incredibly brain-damaged system include files,
or (more likely) you have a misconfigured gcc that is not reading the
correct version of <stdio.h>, <string.h>, etc. One way that that can
happen is if you try to copy a gcc installation from another system
rather than configuring and compiling it on exactly the target system.
(gcc tends to like to make "patched" copies of some of the system
include files, and if those don't match up with the real ones you are
in deep trouble.)
Surely libpq is not the only area where things are failing to build
because of these problems? Or is that the only subdirectory you have
tried to build?

OK, that seems sufficient evidence that Solaris 2.6 *does* have proper
declarations for all these functions in the system include files.
So we're left with the hypothesis of a botched gcc installation
on De Clarke's machine. I'm not quite foolish enough to say that
it couldn't be anything else, but that sure seems like the thing
to investigate first.

Isn't it possible to just run 'fixincludes'? This is what's done when you install gcc from scratch. Don't actually know where to find fixincludes though.
